A scene from Dawn of the Dead 1978
Francine

[hearing the zombies pounding against the shopping mall's glass doors]

They're still here.

Stephen

They're after us. They know we're still in here.

Peter

They're after the place. They don't know why, they just remember. Remember that they want to be in here.

Francine

What the hell are they?

Peter

They're us, that's all, when there's no more room in hell.

Stephen

What?

Peter

Something my granddad used to tell us. You know Macumba? Voodoo. My granddad was a priest in Trinidad. He used to tell us, "When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth."
